Isaiah 66:16 in Context — Isaiah 66

14 Y veréis, y alegraráse vuestro corazón, y vuestros huesos reverdecerán como la hierba: y la mano de Jehová para con sus siervos será conocida, y se airará contra sus enemigos.

15 Porque he aquí que Jehová vendrá con fuego, y sus carros como torbellino, para tornar su ira en furor, y su reprensión en llama de fuego.

16 Porque Jehová juzgará con fuego y con su espada á toda carne: y los muertos de Jehová serán multiplicados.

17 Los que se santifican y los que se purifican en los huertos, unos tras otros, los que comen carne de puerco, y abominación, y ratón; juntamente serán talados, dice Jehová.

18 Porque yo [entiendo] sus obras y sus pensamientos: [tiempo] vendrá para juntar todas las gentes y lenguas; y vendrán, y verán mi gloria.
